Ethical Decision Making in Healthcare

Working in healthcare is very rewarding, I enjoy making a difference in the lives of others. It’s important to always make ethical choices and treat others how you would want to be treated.  Managers and supervisors should take this to heart as they are seen as an authority and their actions can reflect on an entire team or organization. A healthy work society includes managers that are advocates for both the patients and the employees they oversee. By advocating for their employees managers can empower their employees, increasing their abilities to help the patients they care for. Working in healthcare can be stressful and effective management can help mitigate some of it. An effective healthcare professional has empathy for each patient and responds to that individual as a person.
